Hello everyone! Today I'm here to show you my new card in pastels. I had a mood to create something soft and fresh so I went with mint and shades of grey color combo. This card is so unique for me as I hadn't use any stamp for it, instead The Layered Floral Cover Dies.
Layered floral cover dies are super cool! They goes in two designs Layered floral cover die A and Layered floral cover die B. You will have perfect match with those two – your card will be mind blowing. That's why I didn't want to add more elements and focused on the die cuts.
For a white background I used Classic Crest Solar White and for the Layered flower cover die B layer – Pale Gray Cardstock. The last layer of Layered flower cover die A I wanted to make more contrast and took Jet Black Cardstock but then it seemed too dark for me so I blended it with a white pigment ink and it turned kind of graphite color.
Adding a sentiment was a real battle for me, as I didn't want to hide any piece of these gorgeous flowers. And from the other hand not every sentiment will be readable on a such contrast card. The decision came from a big Thanks Die. I blended it with Mountain Mist Crisp Dye Ink and fuzzy cut back layer from the Vellum Translucent Paper to soften contrast flower below it.
Using only dies for the card is an easy and quick way to create beautiful eye-catching card for a last-minute occasions.
Hope you enjoyed my today's ideas.
Thanks!
